The Cavaliers defeated the Hawks 97-82 on Saturday night, making them the first team in NBA history to win seven consecutive playoff games by double-digits.

LeBron James went 15-for-25 from the field for 47 points, while adding 12 rebounds and 8 assists in the Game 3 win.

"I gave it all I had, I knew how important this game was," said James.

"I felt I had a hot hand, a good hand going and anytime you get into a zone like that is a great feeling. The playoffs are what I live for and what I work out for. This is the biggest stage in the world and I want to perform the best I can."

Cleveland will attempt to complete a four-game sweep of Atlanta on Monday night at Philips Arena.
